unwavering moral principles but who nonetheless shredded civil liberties during wartime and withheld support of civil rights
and women's suffrage

the infinite cycles of Hindu cosmology, and to show how humans of this century discovered the expanding universe and its origin
in the Big Bang. He disappears down a black hole and reappears in New Mexico to show viewers an array of seventeen telescopes
probing the furthest reaches of space. In episode 11, the brain is the focus as Dr. Sagan examines another of the intelligent
creatures with whom we share the planet earth -- the whales. Viewers wind through the maze of the human brain to witness the
architecture of thought. We see how genes, brains, and books store the information necessary for human survival
